In Kazakhstan, as part of a pilot, they are planning to change the procedure for registering the unemployed.
Career centers will be given 13 days to find a suitable job for the citizen applying. If a person cannot be employed within this period, he will receive the status of unemployed.
During this period, the experts must evaluate the candidate's education, skills and experience, select vacancies and, if necessary, arrange interviews. There are also opportunities for vocational training and participation in employment assistance programs.
According to the data of the Ministry of Labor, as of September 22, about 365 thousand unemployed people were registered in career centers. During the eight months of 2026, more than 314 thousand Kazakhs received payments for job loss. The average monthly payment was 102,897 tenge.
The new approach is designed to increase employment efficiency and strengthen individual support for citizens looking for work.
